The Month in Review

For indispensable reporting on the coronavirus crisis, the election, and more, subscribe to the Mother Jones Daily newsletter.


Here’s a rough recap of the past month in news hysteria:

Week of July 12: New Black Panthers
Week of July 19: Shirley Sherrod, JournoList
Week of July 26: Ground Zero mosque
Week of August 2: Birthright citizenship
Upcoming Week of August 9: Gay marriage? Michelle’s vacation in Spain? Take a guess!

Quite a summer we’re having, no? Am I missing anything? What have liberals gotten hysterical about lately?

Dear Reader,

This feels like the most important fundraising drive since I've been CEO of Mother Jones, with staggeringly high stakes and so much uncertainty. In "News Is Just Like Waste Management," I try to unpack the reality we all face and how we can rise to the challenge. If you're able to, this is a critical moment to support Mother Jones’ nonprofit journalism: We need to raise $400,000 to help cover the vital reporting projects we have planned, and right now is no time to pull back.
